For the first iteration, but

for the second--it takes up parsing from the same point, but with the new

If your second delimiter really is a space, then the simple solution is
to use "word" instead of "item" inside the loop. Otherwise you can just
do a replace like this:
set the itemDel to tab
repeat for each item itm in strng
replace vtab with tab in itm
put item 1 of itm
end repeat
I think in this case it isn't necessary to store itm in a temp variable
since nothing else is done with it, but check.
